Question

I’m trying to configure an ejb3 sample application, it’s entities where mapped to postgres now I want the app run on Jboss4.3 and Informix using JPA.

If the DDL creation <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="create"/> is active this error appears

> WARN  [ServiceController] Problem
> starting service
> persistence.units:ear=weblog.ear,jar=weblog.jar,unitName=weblog

What does JDBC type: 2005 mean?
Any idea how I can track down the entity/column causes the problem?

Thanks

More info on the data types that you try to map would be nice.
Take a look at this Hibernate Forum thread -> https://forum.hibernate.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=950692&start=0
